The cemetery, 50.5 acres in extent, is situated in a glade enframed by spruce, beech, oak and other trees. It is one of 14 permanent WWII cemeteries erected on foreign soil. There are 5,076 Americans buried here, among them General Patton. I found it fitting that he lies here - with his soldiers/heroes from the Battle of the Bulge.
